I adore this gorgeous handsome man. I'm writing a story about him. If you are interested, I leave a link here. Don't judge me harshly, I'm just in love with him.

Siento que no me quedo tan bien pero me gusto y me divirtió mucho hacerlo, la verdad quisiera hacer una animación fluida pero no me sale Cry

You achieve an incredible amount of success and this leads into a state of stupor that results in your work. The Eagles prove this with The Long Run that resembles one of the parties they talked about in Hotel California, but a sense of tiredness creeps in. Yes, the 70's got the better of them, since the entire disc feels like an attempt of a group to reorganize themselves despite them not having their hearts in this. They're practically going through the motions there, yet they do occasionally remind you why they were the superstars of the era. Still, an abundance of missed opportunities is present, including the tune on the link. The latter has the right intention, though I think they mangled the composition. They should've given the piece to someone else. Linda Ronstadt, perhaps?

Okay, since the Spielberg post blew up, I need to clear up something because I can see in the notes that pple think that Spielberg owns the rights to MLK speeches and I don't want to spread any misinformation. This is what the Vice article says:

In 2009, Steven Spielberg's DreamWorks company paid the estate for film rights to King's words, along with his life rights, which allow a person or company to make content based on an individual's story. DreamWorks has yet to produce or direct Spielberg's planned King biopic, but the rights have caused complications for numerous filmmakers. (Neither Spielberg's literary agent nor King's estate returned Broadly's request for comment.)

This means that while the MLK estate still owns the original copyright for the speeches, Spielberg actually bought and now owns the film rights to MLK's speeches. However, this doesn't erase how problematic it it is since this means that Spielberg is the only filmmaker legally allowed to use MLK's speeches word for word in his films. A White filmmaker is essentially holding onto the film rights, at the expense of Black filmmakers. The article talks about how Ava Duvernay had to write original speeches from scratch for Selma.

King has received only one major biopic, 2014's Selma, directed by Ava DuVernay [...] Instead of using King's speeches, DuVernay wrote original monologues that sounded like soliloquies the civil rights leader could have given. [...] When asked about the changes in 2014, DuVernay told the Washington Post, "We knew those rights are already gone. They're with Spielberg."

The article also mentioned that Spielberg bought life rights and according to this Forbes article, this means that Spielberg also bought the rights to MLK's life.

By paying the Estate for the film rights to Dr. King's speeches along with life rights, Spielberg obtained unprecedented filmmaking access to Dr. King’s life — supported by Dr. King’s extraordinary intellectual property (the right to use Dr. King’s actual words.)

Hope this clarifies everything!
